Triage

The Triage service is based in Hamilton and provides a single point of entry for non-urgent referrals to adult mental health between 8am to 4.30pm, 7 days a week.

The service undertakes initial screening and assessment (telephone or face-to-face) of referrals to ascertain whether a comprehensive assessment is indicated within the community mental health service; or alternatively, to provide appropriate advice &/or facilitate an assisted referral to another service provider, such as a community based Non-Government Organisations (NGO’s).
